Today I learned about another little girl, Elisea, who was born on June 26th and was hooked up to ECMO on June 28. Elisea was doing very well on ECMO and the doctors were thinking about taking her off ECMO only to have her unexpectedly start bleeding into one of her lungs. One of the risks of ECMO is the fact that babies are on blood thinners so bleeds such as this are common and extremely risky.
Maggie, Elisea's mom, doesn't have a blog but I 'met' Maggie on Facebook through the CHERUB Facebook page.
We haven't ask much from friends and family, but we are asking that you send this family your thoughts and prayers (if that suits your beliefs) and most importantly your prayers for this beautiful little baby girl.
If you are interested in learning more about Elisea and her fight you can find the CHERUB's page on Facebook and read more about her there. She is quite simply, so precious.
